The Canary Is Dead.

Today I had the honour of being interviewed by Anson Nash an inspirational 17yr old from Washington discussing the unfolding consequences of our unraveling biosphere. We discuss that fact that all the warnings have been ignored and that we have crossed a multitude of tipping points, are now descending into the abyss and the fact that I refuse to be the last generation of elder lying to the last generation of youth. It was a remarkably philosophical conversation with a remarkable young man.

Brace for imminent impact as we bare witness to the non-linear unraveling of the biosphere and habitability disappearing for most if not all complex life on the only habitable planet we know of.

The world needs unity and that can come about only if we address the needs of all of us. The Free eBook Only Two Ways Left -Continue as at Present and Perish or Change has a way we can unite and change our outdated systems so we can tackle all our problems including climate change.

Excellent interview! I was so impressed with the knowledge of the issue by Anson because he obviously did his homework.I hope he continues this endeavor and educates others so they can prepare for the end of time. The only comment I have is if you can improve on the recorded quality of the sound for your voice Kevin because at times it was difficult to hear what you were saying. It could just be my hearing so I apologize if that’s the case. Thanks for sharing.

Mic placement is everything. It sounds like Kevin is counting on a laptop mic located UNDER the keyboard, for reasons that escape me. The mic might be good enough, and Kevin might be close enough, and next time he might want to tip the laptop so that the screen is flat on the tabletop and the keyboard is perpendicular with the underside facing him.

The young folk are not stupid even though they are treated as such. And it’s gotten pretty obvious just looking out the window here in Washington State that climate and the weather it creates is seriously out of whack.

The local young people ask me about climate, too, and I don’t hold back when I reply, either. I tell them the science I’ve read/currently am reading and not the fossil fuel propaganda that they get from corporate media. I tell them the science realities and not to listen to anything the corrupt politicians have to say because they are all bought.

It pretty much bums them. Yeah, ya think? The one thing I tell them is to hold off having any kids. Most in the last ten years have listened I’ve noticed though there are a few that have.

Thank you so much for your honesty Kevin! I really can’t express the powerful emotions I feel. When you put the load and the responsibility, of your entire generation on yourself. I want to say that, as a young man, you’ve helped inspire me to appreciate the good things I have. I appreciate all the work you do, and want to thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Kevin Hester is currently living on Rakino Island, a small island in the Hauraki Gulf near Auckland, New Zealand, monitoring the unravelling of the biosphere and volunteering at the Rakino Island Nursery is currently developing a proposal to create a marine reserve near by. The Island has no grid tied electricity or reticulated water. I catch my own water from the roof and generate my electricity from the ample solar radiation on the island.
